    I face a problem, that our router as PE cannot do ping without using ip source. When ping using ip source is success

    180.240.180.7 is IP Loopback

     @PE3-ID-DCI.CKR-TCX> ping 8.8.8.8

    PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8): 56 data bytes

    firewall rules are in place to allow ICMP traffic.

    is there something i miss?

    The default address used for ping or other protocols is based on a combination of the routing tables created, routes installed and all the available ip addresses on the device.  There are times when this default selection of address makes the destination unreachable and specifying a source is needed for reachability.
